Graeme's Pit Stop

[Dudders]

Anyone remember them?

I recall the days of looking at my manual and calling up with my mother 'switch card', used to love getting stickers too!

Bl**dy hell - thats a blast from the past, used to go in there occasionally to get my supplies, living in Northants I basically had the choice between RJH models in Corby or Graeme's Pits Stop....

Like most model shops even now - the premises were quite small but stacked high, full of stock, as a young teenager it was always very exciting going in... I can specifically remember buying my first ever proper matched pack of SCRs from them 'Top Models' I think they were The shop was tagged onto the end of a kitchen showroom - which I think was owned by Graeme's dad?

In the year I did back in 96 I used to scim motors there for quid under the watchful eye of Mr Pace

I can remember making the pilgrimage there from Leicester many a time.

Was that the little place down the Welly road? Or was it the place in St James just down from Halfords?

It used to be a four hour mission on the BMX going out buying tyres and spares at the weekends.
